Final Table WSOP

[Windbreaker]

What a way to start it off....

Lazar vs. Matusow: Aces v. Kings
Log: Hand 2 - Mike Matusow has the button in seat 5, Dannenmann raises to $250,000 from under the gun, Lazar reraises to $1,250,000, and Matusow moves all in. The action is coming fast and furious here early, as these players are ready to gamble for first place.


The action is back on Dannenmann, who folds, but then Lazar quickly calls. Matusow shows pocket kings (Kc-Kh), and Lazar has pocket aces (Ah-Ad). Amazing. Matusow is gonna have to improve here.


The flop comes Kd-Qh-6h, and the crowd explodes in a cheer as Matusow makes a set to take a strong lead. Lazar needs to catch an ace or a runner-runner flush to stay alive.


The turn card is the 2h, giving Lazar a heart flush draw.and can now win with any ace or any heart. The crowd oohs and aahs at the turn of events.


The river card is the Jh, and Lazar makes a runner-runner heart flush on the river to pull victory out of the grasp of Mike Matusow, who walks off the stage, wandering around with his hands on his head. He's still alive, but he would have been the chip leader at the final table.
